Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make changes here. But pages should not be moved, like you did to Tumor, without a good reason. They need to have a name that is accurate and simple, and that people will recognize. Wikipedia has some guidelines to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if users are talking about moving a page, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you have a question about this, please ask on Simple talk. Thank you. --*Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page ♮ 03:21, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

@Fehufanga: On a different note, enwiki has tumour as a redirect and neoplasm as the actual page while we have it the other way around. Any reason for this? MrMeAndMrMe_{Let's talk} 03:23, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

@MrMeAndMrMe: More familiar term perhaps? Several other wikis have it as "Tumor" or a variant thereof. Also just a note, pings don't work if you already signed your message, you need to sign your message again to get it to notify other people. --*Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page ♮ 03:27, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

@Fehufanga Perhaps using the name Tumor and its definition on the Simple Wiki is a little misleading. Neoplasm refers to the general abnormal growth of lots of cells while tumor is the subset in which it is a large mass, according to multiple references. When the simple wiki page says that "another name for tumor is neoplasm", I would suggest that this, strictly, isn't true. MrMeAndMrMe_{Let's talk} 03:32, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

@MrMeAndMrMe: removed it from the article. --*Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page ♮ 03:44, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

Thank you! Neoplasm could still be mentioned and put as the main with tumor being a redirect MrMeAndMrMe_{Let's talk} 03:49, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
